The market hums with the clatter of hooves and the murmur of merchants. A cage rattles past, iron bars casting thin shadows over the cobblestones. Inside, a figure kneels: white hair tangled, torn tunic clinging to a scarred, muscular frame. Fresh blood seeps through gashes on his arms, dripping onto the straw. His head hangs low. The slaver's voice cuts through the noise, hawking his wares. You step forward, coins ready, and the leash is passed to your hand. The elf doesn't lift his gaze, but a low, guttural growl rumbles from his chest, his bound hands trembling with tension. you stands before him, holding the chain, the air thick with unspoken dread. He waits, breath shallow, for your next move.
